What the title says. I'm willing to take the "W", do the work all over again, etc. Is there any downsides I'm not aware of? I just worry about my GPA dropping.

Hey guys, it looks like the school was able to dispurse my financial aid. I wasn't a lot but it's better than nothing. They also finally processed my scholarship too! However, that money isn't coming in until after the census date.

​

Went to the office on Friday and it looks like they've already been dispersing funds. Yay! If you haven't received anything, you can let me know and I can do my best to go to the offices in the morning to get you to a person (maybe get you a video call or something?) Ik how hard it is for distanced learners.

So for those of you who don't know: Due to the Big Beautiful Bill has taken into effect and UTA is updating their aid dispersing platform. Any FAFSA filed after April 24th is stuck in the Financial Aid office and they are unable to upload it to our files due to waiting for their portal to reflect the changes.

As of today the front desk has informed me that loans and financial aid will be uploaded/dispersed sometime this week or next week. These effects also affect the scholarship office too.

Another note: There's slightly more people working in the Financial aid office and they're currently quick to answer phones compared to the scholarship office. 😅

Guys, I've been trying to contact the scholarship office multiple times and it looks like no one is in the office. It keeps saying no one is available and to leave a message. I've been at this for 2 weeks. I tried calling their number, email, etc. All within the weekday between their working hours. For the in person people, is there anyone at the office? Are they busy? Wtf is going on?

I've been having issues with my practicum supervisor since the very beginning. They almost never provide feedback (I have to prompt them), I have made multiple attempts to ask them what they are looking for and recieve vague answers. They gave me no positive feedback in their evaluation and it's frustrating, I seriously did nothing good? Not a single strength? They haven't trusted me to do ANYTHING since the start. No matter what I did, nothing was ever good enough or qualified me as being competent.

I've tried letting both the liaison and the agency leadership know about the issue during the semester. Both have told me to tough it out and that there wasn't anything they could do. Now it's resulting in me barely passing even though I know the grading is unfair.

Am I able to file an appeal, will my university think it's a good reason? There technically wasn't any discrimination or violation of the syllabus. It's just that the judgement was unfair and I wasn't even aware of what my supervisor was thinking and what they wanted to see from me.

I'm more than happy to answer questions regarding context. My head space is all over the place.

No matter what I did, nothing was ever good enough. This shows during their final evaluation.
